Ricky Ford - Hard Groovin -1989

MUSE 1989
The consistent tenor-saxophonist Ricky Ford, who was often the youngest player on the bandstand when he first emerged in the late 70s, is easily the oldest musician on this energetic modern bop album. Trumpeter Roy Hargrove, pianist Geoff Keezer, bassist Bob Hurst and drummer Jeff "Tain" Watts are among the main Young Lions of the late 80s and 90s but Ford (heard on both alto and tenor) is easily the most impressive solo voice on this high-quality outing. Ford and his quintet perform five of his originals, a Geoff Keezer song and the standards "Jitterbug Waltz" and "Minority" with driving swing and personable creativity. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
